This is working, but updates to the 9.2 database are very slow. Any ideas? Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Scott A.

You can't create views in the middle db that point to 7.3.4 objects, because the dblink will still complain. Materialized views would work if your data is relatively static. -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Smith, Ron L.
